SAVE EPISODE
Miraculous Season 5 Episode 6 Determination
The episode starts with Marinette riding a motorbike to Collège Françoise Dupont, Adrien was shocked to see Marinette taking off her helmet with her hair down, Kagami gave Marinette an I Love Unicorns helmet, then Adrien greeted Marinette and then she left the school. When Kagami talked to him about something Adrien was thinking about. In the locker room, Kagami put on her swordsman outfit for her swordsmanship class, then she saw that Adrien was looking at her paintings, but he looked at the painting with Marinette and then showed Kagami the painting he was looking at. Kagami showed Adrien her phone with Marinette’s contact open and said he had to call her and ask her out.
The next day, Marinette arrives at Liberty to see her other friends to show them her work for the band. Adrien calls her and says that his feelings have changed and he asked to meet. Adrien tells Kagami that he asked to meet at the Musée Grévin because his feelings changed there. Marinette talks to Luka and tells him how she always makes mistakes when she’s in love with Adrien. He calms her down by telling her to explore her feelings and spend time alone with Adrien. She asks Luka to come with her so that she is less afraid.
They meet up outside along with Adrien and Kagami and meet the museum curator Véronique. She leaves Adrien and the group to visit Mayor Bourgeois. Adrien talks about his feelings and realizes that he loves Marinette. Kagami and Luka start to leave the room they are in, with Adrien and Marinette following them.
Véronique meets with Mayor Bourgeois to talk about the opening of her new superhero hall. The mayor does not want to open the hall and, according to him, it will cause further akumatization. Instead, he argues, it will inspire hope. Threatens to close the museum. Marinette and Adrien run after Kagami and Luka finish, trapped together in the hall of superheroes.
In the following scene, Véronique is heartbroken. Sensing Véronique’s emotions, the Monarch creates a megakuma, engulfs Kaalki in the ring and uses the power, sailing, to teleport the megakuma to Véronique’s location. Véronique temporarily tries to resist the akuma, but the Monarch eventually akumatizes her and gives her the Ox Miraculous power. Véronique turns to Manipula and has the power to bring wax statues to life and recreate superheroes with her wax statues.
Marinette starts to panic after trying to open the metal wall and thinks something is going to go wrong. Adrien says it’s okay and he’s here. Marinette is slurring her words when she says he’s the problem and makes all kinds of mistakes because of her feelings for Adrien (including losing all her miracles in the season 4 finale). She mentions that I can’t tell you anything, while Adrien replies, “You can tell me everything.” The manipulation breaks the metal wall into the same exhibit that Adrien and Marinette are in.
Manipula uses her brochures to bring superhero wax figures to life. They both hide behind statues. Marinette escapes by running for her while Adrien stays hidden. Marinette transforms into Ladybug as the wax heroes run out of the museum. Ladybug follows them and lands on the roof, where she meets Cat Noir, who apologizes for being late.
Ladybug and Cat Noir catch up to Manipulator. Manipula announces that she has brought the heroes back and Monarch renounces evil and that the museum can once again celebrate superheroes. Ladybug and Cat Noir try to convince her to reject megakuma and that Monarch is manipulating her. The Monarch then convinces her not to believe the Ladybug. She blames Ladybug for losing the Miraculous, but Cat Noir backs her up. Then the wax heroes were actually illusions and the wax statues of Rena Rouge and Vesperia surprise attack from behind, but Ladybug and Cat Noir destroy the statues. Manipulation will escape. On their heads is a piece of paper that contains each part of the megakuma. After destroying and realizing that all the strips of paper must be destroyed in order to capture the megakum, they chase after Manipula. Monarch tells Manipul that he was right that it was Ladybug’s fault for losing the miracles. Manipula announces that Paris has a new superhero.
He orders the statues to fuse together to obtain the wonders of Ladybug and Cat Noir. He enters City Hall and orders Mayor Bourgeois to open the Hall of Superheroes. Chloe tells the mayor not to listen to her. The mayor apologizes to Manipul saying that he can’t. He tells the Cat Noir statue to use his cataclysm. She threatens Mayor Bourgeois that if he doesn’t change his mind, the wax statue of Cat Noir will destroy the town hall. Meanwhile, a Minotaurox statue walks behind her. After defeating the waxwork superheroes, Ladybug and Cat Noir tear up the brochures and capture the megakuma parts.
They enter the town hall, ready to fight the statue versions of them. Cat Noir saves Ladybug just as the fake Cat Noir is about to cataclysm her. Cat Noir helps her up and Ladybug uses her luck charm. He gets a bowling ball. Cat Noir opens the door and meets Manipula. He points to the Minotaurox about to hit the Mayor and Chloe who whimper in fear. Ladybug demands that Mayor Bourgeois and his daughter be free, but Manipula says she won’t until the mayor opens the hall of superheroes. Ladybug asks Mayor Bourgeois why he won’t allow it, and Chloe blames Ladybug for losing the miracles. Chloe also calls her lame and tells her that this wouldn’t have happened if the magical bee was with her and that Ladybug has no choice but to protect her from Manipula.
Ladybug looks around trying to figure out how to use her lucky charm but finds nothing. Cat Noir tries to cataclyze the remaining strips of paper, but Manipula grabs his wrist and uses Cat Noir’s powers on her. Horrified that he harmed another person with his superpower, Manipula reveals that she is immune to superpowers because Monarch gives her the power of Resistance. He throws Cat Noir at the Minotaurox statue and he tries to take the ring from him. Ladybug tries to save Cat Noir but is stopped by Manipula. She tries to take Ladybug’s earrings, but realizes how to use her luck charm and that Manipula is not invincible. He is crushed under the chandelier and the rest of the booklets are destroyed and the remaining parts of the megakuma are captured.
Ladybug throws her lucky charm into the air and all the damage is repaired. The manipulation is deakumatized back to Véronique. Ladybug gives her a magic spell and Mayor Bourgeois is convinced by Ladybug to allow the opening of the hall of superheroes. Afterwards, Cat Noir confesses his true feelings. They run away and detransform.
